The man then searched the property and stole an Asus laptop and a small amount of cash.

Claire Nichol, Park Nursery proprietor, said: “Myself and the team were very upset that someone would want to break into an environment where children are meant to feel secure. It really was not worth the effort for what he gained too with the man getting away with a laptop and around £10 in change which we use as our petty cash.”

Despite the damage to the property, the nursery has continued with business as usual with Claire determined to not let the incident affect the children.

“The parents couldn’t believe it and have voiced how disgusted they are,” said Claire. “To lower yourself to doing something like this where children are meant to come along and feel safe and secure is just horrific.
